typically volunteers downloads stuff, and then re-upload it to some server. why not just have the server do all the downloading? is it to have the data backed up sooner/for redundancy or something of the sort? |

if for some reason (like a system or crash or a connection drop) i don't finish some downloads, does the trackers know that i didn't finish them (so it can assign them to someone else? |
